We wish to thank especially Staci Slattery for her hald work and cheerful nature in tracing down many of the articles and bibliography, for entering some of the data, and for running errands between post offices and desks. We would also like to thank Mary Bitner, Alicia Briggs, Willene Francis, and Barbara White for their help in indexing and proofreading; Janet Riehlmann, for her editing; and Beth Willinger, for her encouragement. Finally, we would like to express our appreciation to the Newcomb Foundation for so generously funding both Staci Slattery's work as a research assistant and the printing of this bibliography. The compilation of any work such as this one requires a patient spirit.All of these individuals, as well as the Foundation, helped us to maintain such a spirit. iv PREFACE This bibliography cites over 600 publications, dissertations, and archival sources which inform the history of women's education in the South. It is hoped that our work in compiling such a listing will stimulate further research and allow scholars access to a history rich in diversity. The history of women's education in the South has not received as much attention as has research on women's education in other parts of the country.Histories and guides to sources have focused primarily on the leadership of Northeastern institutions (especially the role of the Seven Sister colleges) and the coeducational institutions of the Midwest. For example, Women's Studies: A.Bibliogranhv of Dissertations, 1870-1982 records only ten titles readily identifiable as studies of the education of Southern women out of 167 dissertations on the history of education in the United States.' However, the last two decades have seen a deepening interest in women's education in the South, an interest which seeks both to document events and to understand how they were shaped by the region's particular historical experience. These two trends -- one focusing on the Northeast and the Midwest, the other now seeking to include other regions -- offer the opportunity for scholars to ask important themetical questms about MIK past is remembered and explored. Until recent years, most scholars of education have focused on the most successful or the biggest failures from the various women's colleges or coeducational institutions. The past of the average woman student, or even the average woman faculty member, was not emphasized. Yet, this lack of emphasis does not mean that sources are not available.From the great number of sources we located, it appears that the records of the pasts of average women simply have not been considered with the same attention given those documents on the more well-known institutions within the dominant patriarchal culture. And the pastsof Southern women have simply not been considered with the same dedication as the pasts of women in other regions. The sources listed here range between very general works, scholarly books and a-ticles, student and financial records, private papers and memorabilia of educators and noted alumnae. The secondary sources in Parts II-V include a sample of general works which set the larger national stage and a number of more regionally-specific ones, all published between 1874 and 1991. They represent some of the thinking that spanned that time perioa. Included are works concerning the changing purpose and nature of women's education in the South, forces (such as the state and religion) for and against women's education, the formal and informal institutions in which education took place, and the women who participated. The primary sources listed in Part VI represent responses to a mailed questionnaire sent to college and university archives of nine different Southern states. *Gilbert, Victor Francis and Darshan Singh Tat la. Women's Studies: A Bibliography of Dissertations, 1870-1982. See entry number 9 in Part II of this bibliography. V A compilation of this sort raises a great number of unanswered questions which we hope these and other sources will be used to pursue.2 Demographic profiles outlining socio-economic background, race, age, and religion of students in the South tell us much about women's education. Who were the women afforded education in the South? Where did women go to school? Were denominational schools more popular in the South than in other parts of the country? Were private schools more popular than public? What do we know about the complex nature of education for women as conceived of by the dominant society? We know that early women's colleges sought to prepare young women to be guardians of their homes and volunteers in the community while struggling with whether they should be provided with the same academic training and knowledge afforded men. What were the various curricula changes that such an evolving and often conflicting approach entailed?These are important questions for researchers to consider.They might also look at choices of academic majors and electives, the nature and degree of involvement in campus activities, residence patterns, and the degree of institutional support for women's issues. What happened to students after graduation? How were educated women perceived in the South?Regional arguments of opponents and proponents of women's higher education also need to be examined more closely with an eye towards educational influences. Finally, who shaped educational policy? Scholars have begun to look at the make-up of the boards

  • Harriet Beecher Stowe's Multifaceted Response to the Nineteenth
    Harriet Beecher Stowe’s Multifaceted Response to the Nineteenth-Century Woman Question amy easton-flake Downloaded from http://direct.mit.edu/tneq/article-pdf/86/1/29/1793865/tneq_a_00256.pdf by guest on 28 September 2021 N the decade following the American Civil War, the I renowned children of Lyman Beecher each took his or her own position along the broad spectrum of debate con- cerning woman suffrage. Henry Ward Beecher served as the first president of the American Woman Suffrage Association (estab. 1869); Isabella Beecher Hooker worked closely with Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony in the National Woman Suffrage Association (estab. 1869); Catharine Beecher helped found the first female-led antisuffrage association, the Anti-Sixteenth Amendment Society (estab. 1870); and Harriet Beecher Stowe, despite pressure from her siblings and other movement leaders and an obvious interest in the issue, re- mained aloof from all organized groups. In the absence of any definitive statement from her, each faction claimed her as an advocate. Between 1870 and 1871, for example, each organi- zation’s journal either listed Stowe as a contributor or quoted from her writings.1 In recent years, literary critics Josephine Donovan and Bar- bara A. White have investigated Stowe’s relation to suffrage 1Stanton listed both Isabella Beecher Hooker and Harriet Beecher Stowe as “prin- cipal contributors” (p. 397)inthe23 December 1869 Revolution, organ of the National Woman Suffrage Association, although Stowe never contributed a single piece of writ- ing to it. Stowe did contribute numerous pieces to the Woman’s Journal. For instance, she praised the Woman’s Journal for its “conservative religious tone” and for not fol- lowing George Sand and the French Woman’s movement (3 September 1870,p.273).

  • As Sex Discrimination in College Admissions
    \\jciprod01\productn\H\HLC\51-2\HLC206.txt unknown Seq: 1 20-SEP-16 14:23 “Gender Balancing” as Sex Discrimination in College Admissions Shayna Medley* As women continue to apply to college in greater numbers than men and, on average, put forth stronger applications, many colleges have been engaging in “gender balancing” to ensure relatively even representation of the sexes on their campuses. This Note aims to call attention to the practice of gender bal- ancing and situate it in the context of the historic exclusion of women from higher education. Preference for male applicants is an open secret in the admis- sions world, but it remains relatively unknown to the majority of students and scholars alike. Those who have addressed the issue have often framed it as “affirmative action for men.” This Note takes issue with this characterization and proposes reconceptualizing “gender balancing” for what it really is — sex discrimination and an unspoken cap on female enrollment. Further, this Note argues that the “affirmative action for men” framework is detrimental both to the conception of race-based affirmative action and to sex discrimination. Af- firmative action attempts to counterbalance systemic educational inequalities and biased metrics that favor white, upper- and middle-class men. “Gender balancing,” on the other hand, finds no basis in either of the two rationales traditionally recognized by the Supreme Court as legitimate interests for affirm- ative action programs: remedying identified discrimination and promoting edu- cational diversity. Gender balancing cannot be legitimately grounded in either of these justifications, and thus should not be characterized as affirmative action at all.

    Financing the Schools in Montgomery County, Virginia A Study Conducted by The League of Women Voters of Montgomery County, VA Introduction The Montgomery County League of Women Voters approved a study of financing for the Montgomery County Public Schools at its annual meeting on May 9, 2018. League members Mary Houska and Wayne “Dempsey” Worner are co-directors of the study. The study addresses the following questions: 1. Is state funding of public education adequate and equitable, and how does it impact funding Montgomery County schools? 2. Has the Montgomery County School Board prepared budgets and has the Board of Supervisors funded budgets that accurately reflect school needs? 3. Are properties in Montgomery County taxed equitably to reflect an appropriate balance of tax revenues from commercial and residential properties? 4. Has the Montgomery County School Board created mechanisms that guarantee equal access to quality programs for all students attending the public schools in the County? The planned completion date for the study was April 2019 for presentation to the League's May 2019 Annual Meeting. Over the summer and fall of 2018: • Meetings were held with representatives of the Montgomery County School Division, the Board of Supervisors, the Commissioner of Revenue’s Office, the Virginia Tech Educational Foundation, and two members of the Virginia General Assembly; • Members of the Montgomery County LWV were invited to join the study group; • Data sources included (1) reports prepared by the Virginia Department of Education; (2) reports prepared by the Commonwealth Institute for Fiscal Analysis; (3) the Montgomery County Schools Budget and Annual Report documents; (4) the Montgomery County Budget; (5) the Virginia Education Association; (6) Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission (JLARC) reports; and others.

Because there was not much opportunity for employment in this town, her mother sent her to finishing school, where she would learn to walk, talk, and act in a way that did not reflect her small-town background. After finishing high school, Dotty was sent to the Fay School of Boston on Beacon Hill. Although the school insisted that Dotty stay there for long hours, they did not provide dorm space. After searching the Boston area, Dotty found dorm space at Boston College. Thus, while she was going through finishing school, Dotty enrolled at Boston College as a part-time student. Her education gave her the grace and style that her mother had wished, along with the knowledge that came from a college education.
